CHER MANSION USED AS DRUG DEN!

SHADY HOUSEGUEST HAULED IN AFTER COPS RAID MALIBU HOME

-

CHER’S multimilli­ondollar Malibu home was turned into a hellish drug den — by her live-in assistant’s bad-boy nephew! Cops reportedly busted Donovan Ruiz after a pal

OD’d on a batch of the killer narcotic fentanyl that he’d provided!

Now pals are insisting Cher give Jennifer — her trusted confidante of 25 years — the third degree about why she allowed such a dangerous person in her home! “A lot of people are blaming Jen for Donovan being there, but Cher keeps making excuses for her,” tattled an insider. Police in squad cars swarmed the 72-year-old diva’s property on Sept. 27 and hauled off Ruiz.

He was charged with several felonies, including possession of cocaine base for sale, selling controlled substances and possession of a weapon. According to cops, Ruiz was headed to the airport at the time of the raid and planned to flee to Australia — where Cher was on tour!

The “Turn Back Time” singer was shocked by news of the raid, which came shortly after Cher had been dragged into another drug scandal.

In a shocker, a concerned member of Cher’s inner circle claimed a flunky was keeping the superstar singer “doped up on a bunch of pills,” and that Cher had fallen “under the spell” of the person. Cher’s rep denied the charge, but in a text to a pal, the tattletale wrote the leech “ladles pills down her throat. [Cher] doesn’t know what she’s taking. I’m sick of this s--t being hid.”
